Sir Edwyn Clement Hoskyns, 13th Baronet, MC (9 August 1884 – 28 June 1937) was an English Anglican priest and theologian.
Career
Hoskyns was born on 9 August 1884 in Notting Hill, London, the eldest child and only son of Bishop Edwyn Hoskyns and his wife Mary Constance Maude Benson.[1] He was educated at Haileybury College, Jesus College, Cambridge and Wells Theological College, graduating from the latter in 1907.[6] Hoskyns was a fellow and Dean of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge,[1] and a notable biblical scholar. On his father's death in 1925, he succeeded to the Hoskyns baronetcy. His influence on the next generation of clergymen was considerable,[citation needed] e.g., on Michael Ramsey,[7][8] Gabriel Hebert,[citation needed] Christopher Evans,[9][10] Donald Lynch,[11] and C. K. Barrett.[12]
Hoskyns served in the Great War as a Temporary Chaplain to the Forces. He was commissioned in July 1915, and served in Egypt and France. He was described as 'A capable chaplain. Hard worker. Has made a good SCF (Senior Chaplain to the Forces).’[13] He was awarded the Military Cross, 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. Under heavy shell fire he personally placed wounded in a safe place, and was solely responsible from preventing them falling into the hands of the enemy. He remained with them until all had been evacuated, being slightly wounded himself. Next day he showed conspicuous courage in tending wounded in an exposed position under heavy shell and machine-gun fire for nine hours without a break.'[14]
He died on 28 June 1937 in London and was buried in Grantchester, Cambridgeshire.[1]
